Abstract: A conferencing arrangement for sharing information within a conference space, the arrangement comprising a common presentation surface including a presentation surface area, a common presentation surface driver, a system processor linked to the driver and receiving and presenting the information content via the common presentation surface and a portable user interface device including a device display screen and a device processor, the device processor programmed to provide an interface via the device display screen useable to view content and to enter a command to replicate content presented on the device display on the common presentation surface, the device processor capable of identifying a direction of a swiping action on the interface as a command to replicate the content, wherein, upon identifying that the direction of a swiping action on the interface is in the direction of the common presentation surface, the arrangement creates a sharing space on the presentation surface area and replicates the cont

Abstract: A seating arrangement includes a base, a lower shell including a first portion coupled to the base and comprising a substantially horizontal portion, a curved transition portion and a backrest portion, a pair of laterally spaced front links extending upwardly from a forward portion of the first portion, a rear link extending upwardly from a rearward portion of the first portion of the lower shell and forwardly of the transition region of the lower shell, and an upper shell comprising a seating portion coupled to the pair of front links and to the rear link, a curved transition portion spaced apart from the curved transition portion of the lower shell and defining an open lateral pass through therebetween, and a backrest portion connected to the backrest portion of the lower shell.

Abstract: A body support structure includes a shell having a central region, an outer peripheral region spaced from the central region, and at least one array extending between the central region and the outer peripheral region. The at least one array includes a plurality of spaced apart support members and at least one connector connecting adjacent support members within each array. The support members of the at least one array are progressively divided between the central portion and the outer peripheral edge.

Abstract: A system and method establishing control of affordances at a workstation. The method includes the steps of storing affordance preferences in a database for a plurality of portable affordance settings that may be present at a workstation, detecting a subset of affordances present within a first zone associated with the workstation, for each detected affordance in the subset, identifying an affordance setting in the database indicating a user preference, and automatically controlling settings of at least each of the detected affordances in the subset to match the user preferences for the detected affordances.

Abstract: A body support structure includes a structural lattice structure having a first stiffness, and a compressive lattice structure supported by the structural lattice structure and having a second stiffness less than the first stiffness. A skin lattice structure is supported by the compressive lattice structure, wherein the skin lattice structure is resistant to shear deformation in response to a normal force and is expandable in a direction transverse to the normal force.

Abstract: A collaboration system for sharing digital content among multiple conferees during a conference session, each conferee using a personal computing device including a device display screen and a device processor, includes a wireless receiver, at least a first large common display screen providing a common emissive surface, and at least a first system processor linked to the receiver and the at least a first common display screen. The device and system processors are programmed to cooperate to provide a user interface via each device display screen, each interface including at least a first sharing field and a file queue. The processors also are programmed to visually distinguish, on each user interface, each file added to the session by one conferee from other files added by other conferees. Additionally, the processors are configured to replicate content presented in the at least a first sharing field on the large common emissive surface.

Abstract: A system determines an object-design for a three-dimensional model of an object. The object-design may exhibit a design continuity. The system breaks the object-design in to spatial patterns corresponding to the discrete surfaces making up the outward surface of the object. The system then generates flattened patterns by projecting the spatial patterns into a two-dimensional plane. The system prints the flattened patterns on to designated regions of material sheets in an orientation that preserves the design continuity of the object-design. The regions may be extracted from the sheets and then joined at their edges to form a cover for object that exhibits the continuity of the object design.
